Had a guy who was a Beech 1900 Captain. He had about six months F/O time in an MD-80 when he got hired by Atlas.

Yes, quite a few people in my recent class were Caravan pilots who also had metroliner time; corporate guys too. Apply. Lots of hiring going on.

Caravan pilots to a 767 and 747? Frightening.

Pilots license and a pulse, you are certainly qualified to come join the misery, lawsuits, near misses, and daily battles.
